Economical
Flavor
Does the
high cost of
living get you
down? Butts
County home
makers are
finding they
have to be wise shoppers to con
tinue serving top quality meals
on last year’s food budget.
Here’s a tip on a flavorful, yet
economical dinner. Try a blade
chuck roast.
Although it’s considered a less
tender cut, this roast has an ex
cellent beef flavor if properly
prepared. If it’s USDA prime or
choice, a blade chuck roast can
be oven roasted—the dry heat
method of roasting—even if it
has sections that vary in tender
ness.
Busy Life
Sterling is one of the few
beautiful items in the home which
actually thrives on use. That ex
traordinary rich, mellow look of
silver is produced only by time
and wear.
If you have sterling in your
home, I hope you use it for your
most prized and special mealtime
companions—your family. Re
member, silver is one item use
and family of Americus spent
the weekend with his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Fletcher.
Many Thanks To My
Friends And Customers
I have been owner of Allen’s Hom-Ond Food Store
less than two days, having taken over ownership on April
Ist, but I have already received good wishes and congrat
ulations from many customers and friends. As I start in
business for myself, I want to pedge the same high type
service and products that were so characteristic of my pred
ecessor, Mike Allen.
And speaking of Mike, I want to thank him and Cath
erine for their interest and concern in me and for their
efforts in teaching me the fine points of the grocery busi
ness. While I have tried to be a good pupil I know there is
much to learn and much of it must come with experience.
I thank them both from the bottom of my heart.
The policy of the store will remain the same as will
the prompt service and the friendly smile. We appreciate
your business and trust that you will continue to favor me
with a portion of your patronage.
Thank you again for your many kindnesses and for ex
pressions of success in my new business.

Three Onions
Basically there are three types
of onions in our food markets.
Do you know the uses of each?
Globe onions are the most com
mon and are considered pri
marily as cooking onions. Most
varieties of globe onions have
yellow skins. They are predomi
nantly round or oval and have a
rather pungent flavor.
Grnaex-grano, onions generally
yellow skinned and somewhat
flattened or top-shaped, are
mild in flavor. They are con
sidered ideal for slicing and eat
ing raw.
Spanish onions are similar to
globe in shape but larger in size.
Most varieties are yellow. They
are mild and ideal for slicing and
for salads.
Whatever variety you choose,
look for hard or firm onions
which are dry and have relatively
small necks.
Garden Tip
Early spring is a good time to
make the first application of
fertilizer to your boxwood plants.
You may use a specialty fertilizer
but follow the recommended rates
as given on the packages.
If you choose, you might use
an 8-8-8 fertilizer at the rate of
one-fourth standard measuring
cup per foot of height of the
plant. Whatever you use, spread
the material evenly underneath
the entire spread of plant. Do not
allow any to accumulate on the
base of the plant or trunk. Re
member, a thorough watering im
mediately after fertilizing is de
sirable.
It’s A Fact!
Success is still operated on the
self-service plan.
